27:20 T#2 with the AcTs on the Jc6s2c board the flop call is a little baffling, but I think the thought process for these players is as simple as he bet small, so he doesn't have a pair yet and I'm just going to take it away on the turn when he bets and gives up on the turn. I see this a lot on lower stakes actually. They are not concerned about their equity or playing their range, they just float random garbage and try to make plays. I had a guy once float me with 75o on AQJr board because I bet 25% pot. I did check sizing choice on the J62cc board, it is split between really small sizing and half pot sizing. I do agree with you that your bluff is good to get Jx hands to fold or maybe a hand like 9c9x. I also get upset with these situations where you know in theory it's a good play, but against certain opponents you get mad at yourself for not just playing a more exploitative style. Even on hands I win I get mad at myself because In real time I know I shouldn't bluff this guy, but I do it anyways, but say I get lucky on the river and win! I am still mad at myself for making a "dumb play" that I know I shouldn't of made. Any advice on handling your emotions like this?
34min T#2 - 99 squeeze vs BTN + SB CC. Curious why you used a smaller 11.5bb sizing here given the BB is going to be polar? I guess more linear in squeeze spots so size down? Recent video by Sauce I saw him going to 14bb vs UTG 2.2x and also vs btn 2.5x going to 14bb from the BB (non-squeezed spot). I thought this would be closer to 15bb for a standard sizing? If btn raises 2.2 and you 3bet from the BB I assume you still go 11-12bb? Curious how the SB cold call plays into your preflop sizing and also range construction?
There are some spots where K8s folds EP and K5s folds MP. I think in past videos as low as K5s was opening from EP or K7s+. Any thoughts on these KXs hands being opens or folds? I see you use RNG for 65s from MP, but KXs doesn't appear to be a second thought for some of your folds.
AT, yeh the K8 flop float was just about the worst combo he could choose! I hate bluffing these spots vs these players.
99, i used a smaller size because the BTN & SB ranges are weak so I will be SQZ linear (not polarised) and i dont want to go too big with range and have to fold vs what would be a wide 4Betting range with +ev hands like KJs etc. If I SQZ to $65 the 4B would be around $140, so it's a dicey spot with KJs type hands.
Kxs hands - they're marginal ev hands EP/MP so I just either randomise them or open them in weak lineups
I think checking at frequency is fine. Hands are going to be some QQ/JJ/Tx, maybe some complete air like 76ss/A5ss.
With A4, I think his raise is fine to get value/stacks in vs 99+ before scare cards come. He unblocks all flush draws too. And he should definitely find raises with JJ+ and flush draws too.

At 5:58 he's never suppose to X that flop in theory, why do you think he's decided to implement checks and what hands would you expect to see?
also at 16mins is raises that flop which ain't a thing so i guess he's just doing his own thing
